Today, while clearing stuff out of the basement, I found my ex-wife's old electronic diary device from the '90s. I found the charger, powered it up, and had soon read all about out she'd been cheating on me for almost half our marriage with the guy she's now married to. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I found out that my wife had been debating leaving me for an old boyfriend from high school. They rekindled their relationship on Facebook, and talking on the cell phone. Both things I insisted she have. FML
Today, I figured I needed to clean my room. I ended up finding my $135 calculator that I'd accused my ex-boyfriend of selling for gas money. That's also the reason I dumped him. FML
Today, I found out that my wife has been having an affair with the guy who's been trying to get our relationship back on track. FML
Today, I found out my ex bought a digital camera, an iPod, and a large flat-screen TV, all purchased with the alimony I'm paying him. FML
The cost of friendship
Today, my wife found out about all the crazy stuff my ex and I used to do in my car, which I still drive. Serves me right for encouraging them to be friends. I hope she doesn’t find out about what went down on our ottoman, I can’t afford a new one. FML
Today, I decided to check out a dating site, when I stumbled across my ex wife's profile. She'd had it for four out of the five years of our marriage. And no, it didn't rate us as a good match. FML
Dodged a bullet
Today, I went through the stuff that I'd left at my ex’s place and started unpacking it. I found a pair of another girl's panties. We broke up a little over a week ago. FML
Never forget
Today, I asked my wife for her computer password because my computer crashed. After minutes of begging her, she finally told me. Turns out that her password happens to be her ex's name. FML
Today, I walked into pawn shop and found a nice laptop which I inspected after I thought I lost mine months ago. Turns out my ex pawned it after having it at her place all this time. FML
Snooping
Today, while visiting my in-laws, I went into their home office in search of a sheet of scrap paper. Instead, I found printed copies of every email and IM my husband and I had ever sent each other, including pictures. Highlighted and annotated by his mother. FML

Dear diary, My wife's an asshole.

It's better to find it now when she's your ex-wife rather than to have found it while you were still married to her. Regardless, that stinks OP. You're better off without her.

Just be happy she's your ex. People who cheat don't deserve good relationships...

Now that she's married to him, I wonder who she's sleeping with.

Are you really surprised?

Omg. I am terribly sorry to hear that OP. You don't deserve such a thing. I wish you the best and I know you'll find a better person. I know you will. There are many great people out there.

I hate to be that guy, but you don't really know if OP deserved this or not. For all we know, he could be a serial puppy torturer.

#36, even if OP is a serial puppy murderer his wife (ex-wife now) should divorce him, then report him to the cops. There really is never a reason to cheat.

There shouldn't ever be a reason to, anyways.

She cheated and now she's now married to that same guy. Who's marriage has lasted longer? You said back in the 90's - which is a long time ago. It makes me wonder if she is happier with that new person. Then again, it also makes it feel as if she's emotionally unstable bouncing to guy after guy.

I hope you don't have kids that coincide with the timing...?

Wow. That sucks. But at least you're no longer married to her. By the way, do you still have any kind of contact with her?

Alimony is a possibility.
JLDork 11
alimony actually isn't a possibility because she's remarried. once they marry again, you don't have to pay it anymore.

I loose hope for a decent woman more and more everyday.. Sorry to hear that man, just keep your head up. God's just got a better plan for ya

The more FMLs you read of course you're going to lose hope in women/men/humanity as a whole. It kinda comes with the territory. I have yet to see a FML stating "today I met the best woman in the world and you will too someday. FML." That would be stupid. Not all women are cheating twats.

haha. That was in general. Just the mentality of women raised in America is ridiculous. Most are young minded amd never satisfied. But thank you for your infinite wisdom.

Well at least she is your ex wife now!

Some things aren't meant to be found
